I'd have to agree with you about the specific SAN/setup you're working with there. I certainly disagree that it's a general property of SAN's though. We've got a DS4300 with FC controllers and drives, hosts are generally dual-controller load-balanced and it works quite decently. Indeed, the EMC SANs are generally the high-priced ones too, so not really sure what to tell you about the poor performance you're seeing out of it. Your IT folks and/or your EMC rep. should be able to resolve that, really... Enjoy, Stephen
